It was out of  12  on a lonely   road far from a town. I decided to walk until I found someone who could  13  me a gallon（加仑） or two of petrol. I had  14  almost a mile before I finally found a big house near the road. I was           15  to see it because it was starting to get dark. I  16  at the door and a little old lady with long white hair answered. She said, “I have been  17  for you a long time. Come in. Tea is almost ready.”

“But I only came for some petrol.” I answered. I couldn’t  18  what she was talking about.

“Oh, Alfred! Petrol? You used to  19  tea.”

I quickly  20  that I needed some petrol, but she didn’t seem to hear me. She just kept calling me Alfred and talking about how long it had been since she had seen me. She was acting very strangely and I was  21  to leave. As soon as she went to get tea, I went out of the house as fast as I could.  22  , there was another house down the road and I was able to buy several gallons of petrol.
